Bankruptcy Attorney in Allegheny County (Pittsburgh), PA

Allegheny County is home to Pittsburgh and the second-largest concentration of consumer bankruptcy filings in Pennsylvania. Cases are handled by the U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the Western District of Pennsylvania in downtown Pittsburgh.

Local experience in Allegheny

We represent debtors throughout Allegheny County — Pittsburgh proper, the North Hills, South Hills, Monroeville, McKeesport, Bethel Park, and the Mon Valley. We understand the Western District's local rules and the standing Chapter 13 trustee's plan-confirmation expectations.

How we file your case

We start with a free consultation, run the PA-specific means test, and recommend Chapter 7 or Chapter 13. If you're facing a UPMC medical-debt lawsuit, a PNC or Citizens credit-card judgment, or a Duquesne Light shutoff, we move quickly to file and trigger the automatic stay.
